I love craft nights...


So me and my girl Kylee got together and made these cute little countdowns for Halloween . They were pretty simple but so time consuming..
They are just cookie sheets that we modge podged with scrap book paper. Then we used all kinds of things for magnets... buttons, cute little brads we found at Ben Franklin, skeleton hands, and glass beads with paper on the back. My kids love picking a new magnet to put on every day. We are planning on making one for Thanksgiving and Christmas too!! Can't wait :)

My fake fantel and a spooky little wittch....

My fantel- fall mantel!! I do not have a fireplace - I WISH!!! So this little shelf above my tv will work for now!!! I am still working with this and keep moving stuff around so I will show you a picture once I finish a few things up!!!!


Here is my spooky little witch.. I got the idea from Make&Take- but changed mine up a bit. I could not find cute hair for her so I just used yarn and added some little spiders to her piggy tails. I think she is adorable ;)

Halloween subway art

I love love love the subway art right now!! I would make one for every room in my house if it wouldn't look tacky:) Is there such thing as too much subway art.. nope I don't think so!!
This was a little bit more difficult then most that I have made because I used vinyl to stencil so I could get all the fun halloween colors on there- way cheaper then buying all these colors in vinyl- and I love the look of stenciling!!!
I just cut a peice of MDF to the size I wanted and painted in orange then I painted white over that and sanded and stained and went to town!!

Just remembered where I got this idea from: http://makeandtake.blogspot.com/- go check her out and if you live in her area stop by one of her craft nights!!!
